The Nordic Gateway

Connecting International Projects with Nordic Partners

In 2025, Göteborg Film Festival’s Nordic Film Market launches the Nordic Gateway, a new section connecting international feature films with Nordic partners. Highlighting five high-potential projects from renowned creators and production companies, the initiative sparks opportunities for co-production and financing. One project will receive the €35,000 Tint Post-Production Award, presented by Göteborg-based studio Tint.

As part of Nordic Film Market’s mission as the region’s leading market, the Nordic Gateway will connect international projects with Nordic partners. Five curated projects in the financing stage will be showcased on January 30 to producers, financiers, and sales agents, followed by one-on-one meetings. The day ends with an award ceremony announcing the Tint Post-Production Award winner.
